Ron's picture is an excellent illustration of using the right tool for the job.
A two button basic start/stop control is a good candidate for something to be done in ladder. But if I were going to calculate the volume of material in a frustum shaped tank or parse a string or prescan a recipe to check all the values then I would rather use ST.
After you get the extensions installed and as you become more familiar with the new tools you'll find there are times when you will prefer using one over another.
